My Journey through the AI GHANA Mentorship Program

 I was browsing LinkedIn one day when I saw a post by AI Ghana looking for individuals to mentor in data science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. I tried my luck by applying, and in a few days I was invited for an interview to learn more about me. After the interview, in a few weeks I was accepted into the mentorship program out of a large number of applicants. 

To add to that, I was very happy that day that I received an email that I had been accepted into the mentorship program. Since I am an artificial intelligence (AI) enthusiast and I didn't know where to start, this was a great opportunity for me to start my journey in the field.


Besides, I am a geomatic engineering student, and I want to be a geospatial developer or geospatial data analyst in the future. Being in this mentorship is a step torward becoming who I want to be.
Finally, my mentor, Godliver Alangyam, introduced me to the Python programming language, in which she taught me how to use some data science libraries like Pandas, Numpy, Matplotlib, Sci-Py, Plotly, Keras, Scikit-Learn, and PyToch. I was taught the various uses of these libraries, for example, how to use them to clean data, visualize data, build models to make predictions, and arrive at MVP. My mentor also introduced me to the WorldQuant Data Science Lab, where I have to work on eight real-world data science projects, and anytime I get stuck on a project, she is always available to assist me. I am done with two projects so far and am working on the third. I have really learned a lot from this mentorship program, and I have also grown my network, as there is a saying that "Your network is your net worth".

In conclusion,  I feel very delighted to graduate from this program and I will apply knowledge I have learnt here in my future career. A big thanks to AI Ghana for giving me this wonderful opportunity, and I also appreciate the effort of my mentor for dedicating enough time to me.
